This lesson's Group Activities are:

Talk like a Pirate! In this activity you are to create an English to Pirate Translator. Users should input a phrase and your program should translate it into pirate speak. A few rules:

$1.$ Certain words need to be converted:

hello becomes ahoy

hi becomes yo$-$ho$-$ho

my becomes me

friend becomes bucko

sir becomes matey

where becomes whar

is becomes be

the becomes th$\text{'}$

there becomes thar

you becomes ye

anything which ends in $-$ing becomes $-$in$\text{'}$

$2.$ You need to obey capitalization and punctuation: if the word is capitalized, then its translation should also be capitalized. If the sentence ends in a period, then the translation should end in a period. To keep punctuation simple, you can stick to coding for commas and periods, and ignore all the rest.

$3.$ Pirates like the word "arr". For fun, randomly insert it into your translation.

$4.$ Remember to use all the tools in your arsenal, especially mainline logic, functions, loops, and error handling.

$5.$ The "replace" function is your best friend for this one.
